    Well,, Durnit. Sorry R.W., I tried to help.

    Check the parking brake adjustment also.
  3. TomRhere
    Do all EA81 bodied vehicles take the same seal?
  4. TomRhere
    Adjust the rear brakes.

    Got a couple pics. PM me your email and I'll send them.

    Pretty sure I can match the PS one. Been a few since I've layed eyes on them, but the ones I have look familiar from memory. Do my best to remember to get them out of their hiding spot tomorrow (after work) and snap a pic or two for you.

    You need just the lens, or whole tail-light assembly? Have both. Should have ignition key lock assembly and door locks to keep it all one key. I'll check on that and post back.

    5 pedal boxes from EA82's, '86 thru '92, all have those pieces. Didn't look at the one on the BRAT.

    Still have the '82 BRAT. But when I'll ever have time to work on it is the question.
  11. TomRhere
    Sold it.
  12. TomRhere
    Sold it today.

    No resistor on these. ECU is mounted to the underside of steering column. Have to remove that trim panel to access it.
  14. TomRhere
    The speed selector switch has failed. You are correct on the "High Only" if it was the resistor pack.

    If it's the front left one hanging up, it could be due to the Hill-Holder. Proper adjustment of it's cable would help there.

    Thinking I could lend a hand or two myself. Would need a few days notice to make sure nothing else would be scheduled then, but could do a couple days at your place getting things done, or ready to be finished up aleast.

    Agreed. Also may want to replace the water pump if money allows and you don't know it's age. Going to be right there next to it anyways. Seeing as yours doesn't have A/C, pulling the radiator AND the center of the grille, gives all kinds of; "I can see what I'm doing" room. I have used ATF/kerosene/fuel-oil/diesel along with the engine oil in the oil pan to try to clean the innards of an engine in the past. All will work, but I seem to like Seafoam more as of late.. ATF is high detergent, it do clean stuff well. Risleone (sp?) Engine Flush was another one I used in the past, but don't find it locally anymore. That stuff worked in my opinion, but it smelled just like kerosene to me. So why not use use kerosene instead was my thought, as I could buy a gallon of kerosene for the cost of the quart can of Risleone.

    Yep. Just what you thought it to be. Noisy lifter. Referred on here as, "The Tic-of-Death" (TOD). But it's really not fatal to the engine. Annoying as all get out, definitely. Some Seafoam in the oil for a bit to maybe clean things, and a fresh oil change may help. But a reseal of the oil pump would really be best. edit; Didn't hear that when you were down here last Sunday.

    Some 8-10 years ago, there was a person on here that did the rant/rave about the EA series of engines. Refused to listen to what anyone else had to say about "What HE knew" of the greatness of them. He got banned finally.

    Just looked at the wiper system of the '82 BRAT. In Parked position, the arm from motor to DS wiper is at the bottom of the motor pivot.
  21. TomRhere
    Thanks skylar! Was thinking it was him, but wasn't sure.
  22. TomRhere
    I've soaked them for a couple days in a bowl of Seafoam to clean them, then soaked them in a bowl of oil. Seemed to work good.
  23. TomRhere
    Try a place that sells truck caps, they may be able to find a match. Or, jcwhitney.com sells various shapes of weather stripping. Worth a look.
  24. TomRhere
    http://car-part.com/ Another place to look.

    Yeah, those storms were intense to say the least. They sounded the warning sirens around 10 PM here. Not sure if was due to the storms, or if there actually was a tornado in the area.
